Thick Film Pastes and Precious Metal Powders


Our response to the further integration of electronic components is to ensure you of the highest quality pastes.
Precious metal pastes have been widely used in various applications such as hybrid IC, thermal print heads, and so on. Our fine technology will deliver the best quality products for precise conductive circuit, such as LTCC.
Features
Spherical powders with uniform particle size are utilized for the pastes.
Prices of pastes are reduced through a start-to-finish process from powder materials to the pastes.
Appropriate pastes are designed for a variety of applications.
